Autobiographical Realization


Entering contests of different themes

Styles and genres, topic and scenes

Attempting to portray my life in a shell

Exhibiting fear, far more than the son of William Tell

Separation and losses, death and success

The numbing incoherence of drugs in excess

As I try to express self and create my pages

I struggle to find any inspirational stages

The papers lie blank, emotionless and still

Resembling a dead painters canvas of will

Just one word can provide desired fame and grand wealth

But this story will never finish, for I don't know myself
